Office visit availability is limited to one patient per appointment time; we do not double-book patients except for emergency visits. Scheduling visits months in advance is necessary and often avoids unnecessary delays in getting good medical care while affording one the best chance of the most convenient time and date requested. Office follow-up visit availability is on a first-come, first served basis. In other words, if you call at the last minute, just before you need an office visit, or because you ran out of medication, most of your preferred appointment times will likely be taken. Therefore please schedule your next appointment at the end of each office visit.

We are usually able to see patients close to their scheduled appointment time. In some instances, you might see a patient called in ahead of you; these patients are not on the physician’s schedule and are receiving allergy injections or are undergoing other laboratory tests. In addition, emergencies may arise in our office which may result in some patients being seen sooner.

If you know you can’t make an appointment, please cancel it by phone and immediately reschedule your next follow-up appointment. It is the patient’s responsibility to schedule follow-up appointments as recommended and reschedule appointments when he/she cancels or misses an appointment. Please plan and be prepared to schedule your next appointment at the end of each office visit.
